Fabric Swatch(s):
 
Amezri wanted to have a shindig (which is a Firefly get-together) this summer.
Most people threw together some clothes they got from Salvation Army or what-not,
but not me. Oh no...I had to go all out. I used some of the fabric that Amezri
sent me from her grandmother's house for the shirt. I got the fabric for the
skirt from Joann's. I made the skirt longer using the slip-like pattern. It
worked ok, and I had a finite amount of fabric, so I went with it. For the shirt,
I did the version with the buttons. I had originally wanted to do the costume
shown at the top of the page, but I couldn't find the orange silk to do it.
I did my own version, using the blue fabric. I put one ruffle along the bottom
of the skirt in the blue and wore my brown sandles. Oh - and I used the Mirror
Queen wig (version 2) again.
Favorite part: The shirt - it was awesome to have true oriental silk
- and for free!
Least favorite part: the zipper - I suck at zippers. Also, the skirt
was a bit constricting.
